And a tick removal tool as well, not something you see on a knife very often !

You should ask Nick if he likes it :)
You should seriously visit vicfan.com. All the hoopy froods are doing it.

I don't like the tick tool as the plastic is very soft and that is not what I would expect from a magnifier.
However, I suppose, soft plastic is very good for the tick removal, it follows the curvatures of the skin and must be convenient for its prime use.
I can't test it however, since I try to stay away from the woods...

Yes, the design of the tick tool itself is good (we did have a bit of a discussion about it being next to the knife, or even being inside a pocketknife  :whistle:).

Like I've said before, I have a creditcard shaped tick removel tool which is also made out of soft, flexible plastic and it works great.  It has two sizes of tick removal tool, depending the size of the tick, and a useable magnifier (yes, a glass one would be better, but those might fall out ...  :whistle:).

Being a little smaller, it should be a bit better than the Vic Equestrian (which in a lot of ways, I still prefer). I love the artwork on the white one. 40 francs isn't bad.

where you found those knives? 
It was posted by Swiza in one of their social accounts, I copied the pics and reposted here. I am eager to find this on a web-site too.

Swiza recommends a special app for Android\Apple called 'Zecke'. A nice educational and practical guide of what to do in case of tick bite, how to remove, where to report and where is the higher risk in Switzerland and Liechtenstein. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.garzotto.zecke
I have been aroung Lake Geneva many times and I don't believe there could be anything dangerous in Swiss wilderness (if you can call that in the middle of civilization). Still the app shows 'dangers'.
